If it goes to a retrial then.....
Authored by: Anonymous on Thursday, June 14 2012 @ 12:54 PM EDT

Novell has had practice with a previous Jury and is prepared for the next one.

Unless the Judge actually plays by the rules BSF seems to want:

    Only allow our side to present evidence, not the other!
And thereby - effectively - prevents Novell from presenting a case while Microsoft is allowed to present a defense...

Given the response of the Appeals Court with regards the Judge previously ruling Novell didn't have a case... I wouldn't expect it to accept such behavior on the part of the Judge. And if they have to over-rule him again - they might just issue an order saying another Judge needs to be assigned. Of course, they could keep sending it back to him till he gets it right too.... kinda makes you wonder how many times he'd be willing to repeat the process before realizing he needs to either be fair to Novell or give up the case to someone else who can.

Perhaps this next trial will have everyone agree MS is guilty of both anti-competitive behavior and damages!
